Fixed several Chrome crashes in Windows 10. Fixed auto-recovery dialog failure to popup in Windows 10-CU. Firefox H264 video decoder now works. Creation of IE embedded application objects are no longer blocked by default (which began in 5.18).If IE is your default browser, it is being forced, and hyperlinks in MS Office are not working, you can use new option BlockIEEmbedding=y.----------------------

The auto-update feature only checked the next update time (sandbox.ini setting SbieCtrl_NextUpdateCheck) 1 time when SbieCtrl.exe was started. If SbieCtrl.exe was kept running, it would never check the update time again.

Several large memory leaks (reported by Dr. Larry Pepper et al.) have been fixed. http://forums.sandboxie.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=18412

ASLR is now enabled for SbieDll.dll 32 bit (64 bit will come later).

OpenIpcPath=\BaseNamedObjects\FontCachePort is now in templates.ini as a default. Until now, this was a suggested work-around for some Chrome 37 problems.NOTE: the default only applies to new installs. For existing installs, you need to go into Sandbox settings->Applications->Miscellaneous, and check the option "Allow direct access to Windows Font Cache"Added hook for GetProcessImageFileName/NtQueryInformationProcess so it now returns the sandboxed path.

I'm new here and having trouble with this site. Don't know where to post my info.Anyway Sandboxie is NOT available on Windows 10. This message is coming to you from a test version of Windows 10.

It's about dang time, this is how I became a CIS user because I love sandboxie more than Avast

These are the changes to Sandboxie since version 4.08:The Excel clipboard problem "The picture is too large and will be truncated." has been fixed.

Sandboxie is now built under Visual Studio 2010 and uses newer versions of the Microsoft libraries.

Incompatibility with FFX 27 and Avast that caused FFX to run with no visible windows.

Chrome crash when reporting an issue under Tools->Report an issue...

Fixed a problem with DFS drives (Distributed File System)

The "InjectDll" setting would sometimes cause DLL initialization to fail with the message "CRT not initialized" or "DLL failed to initialize".http://www.sandboxie.com/index.php?VersionChanges#v_4_10

SBIE1222 Error with security token: C0000061 / 33? caused by KB3088195 (Win 10 KB3097617) distributed on 10/13/2015 has been fixed.

Defend your security and privacy while browsing the web. Prevent the installation of spyware, malware, and other potentially unwanted software!

SpywareBlaster works alongside your web browser and existing security setup, to provide a powerful multi-layered defense against the bad side of the web. No need to choose - keep your existing tools and your favorite software, and add on SpywareBlaster's complementary, no-nonsense protection.

New in this version: -Google Chrome support -Improved Windows 8 support -Improved support for the latest versions of Mozilla Firefox. -Numerous other bug fixes, optimizations, and tweaks.

SpywareBlaster was one of my favorite tools of the past along with Spybot S&D and Ad-Aware. But things have changed, most browsers already offer about the same kind of protection or better with add-ons like Ghostery and Do Not Track Plus. The most current version of IE also automatically blocks third-party add-ons, Active X controls and Toolbars, users will have to approve the changes in order for them to be enabled and it is very easy to disable them now. Firefox and Google Chrome also auto block third-party extensions and you have to manually enable them. If somethings happens to get past the protection then IOBit Uninstaller can remove the most difficult browser add-ons with ease.

I hate to say it but SpywareBlaster is basically no longer needed since better options are available.

What's new in this version:Added support for SetCursorPos API.Support for Immediate Recovery on Windows 8.1.Fixed crash when Microsoft Chinese Pinyin IME is in use.Fixed a problem with Chrome and LastPass on Windows 8.1Fixed a BSOD crash.Added support for pasting bitmaps and metafiles from the clipboard.Added support for the dynamic variant of \RPC Control\spoolss (from spoolsv.exe) that is introduced in Windows 8.1, to allow programs in the sandbox to print in Windows 8.1.Added NACL.EXE and NACL64.EXE to list of lingering programs.Fixed error SBIE2205 after installing Microsoft KB2898785 with IE10 and IE 11Download: Sandboxie 4.08 | 2.5 MBView: Sandboxie Website

Ino many of you know how to use Sandboxie so this is aimed for the people who are new to it :biggrin:

What is Sandboxie?

Sandboxie is very useful to check whether or not a program is infected, you can also use it to test out your botnet. Sandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer.

Now that you've ran your program you're probably wondering What does this all this mean? Now is when you analyze Sandboxie to check if the program has dropped any files. In the All files and Folder sub-menu you can observe the exact location of dropped files.

How do I know if my program's infected?

To decide whether or not a program is infected you have to think. Should this program drop files? For example : I've downloaded a crypter and decided to check it out in Sandboxie. Now immediately after I run it, I get a file dropped :

A:[How To] Use Sandboxie

Not a bad effort at all, nice one for taking the time to create it... About the whole password stealing though, using Lastpass or other variations would also combat this. I think you have explained it well enough though for all users to understand so top marks for that.

Don't use Sandboxie myself even though it's one of a few things that is worth paying for, but currently stick to CIS Bundled effort (cannot wait for v6 with full virtual... ).

Would rep + but thumbs up/down does not seem to be visible for me still?? Jack?? lol.

Whats the word with Sandboxie?Does anyone here use it? and does it work well with a 64 bit program?I need all the help I can get..so I'm hoping for good reviews.

A:sandboxie??

Sandboxing is a technique which creates an isolated operating/virtual environment in which applications can be run, tested or installed without permanently modifying the local drive. Sandboxes can be used for security and software development. For more specific information about how sandboxes work, please read A Taste of Computer Security: Sandboxing.Sandboxie is one example of a sandboxing tool.Getting Started: How to use Sandboxie - the tutorial has 6 parts

Addressed an issue in which Opera 51/Chrome v64 dev/Canary were crashing when Sandboxed [viewtopic.php?p=130933#p130933]

For x86 systems --> If you encounter "SBIE2335 Initialization failed for process Start.exe [11 / 87]" after creating a new Sandbox/installing this beta, please allow 30 seconds to go by, then re-try the action. This is being investigated.Sandboxie - Download Sandboxie

Introducing Sandboxie: Sandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer.

Benefits of the Isolated Sandbox

Secure Web Browsing: Running your Web browser under the protection of Sandboxie means that all malicious software downloaded by the browser is trapped in the sandbox and can be discarded trivially. Enhanced Privacy: Browsing history, cookies, and cached temporary files collected while Web browsing stay in the sandbox and don't leak into Windows. Secure E-mail: Viruses and other malicious software that might be hiding in your email can't break out of the sandbox and can't infect your real system.Windows Stays Lean: Prevent wear-and-tear in Windows by installing software into an isolated sandbox.

'Web Browser' - to run the sandboxed web browser or you can use the shortcut in your desktop named 'Sandboxed Web Browser'. 'Email Reader' - to run the sandboxed email reader.'Windows Explorer' - if you want to run Windows Explorer sandboxed.Hope this helps.

Just updated, so far so good, thanks for the heads up Super freaking fantastico

i been using sandboxie for many diffrent things. i have even download rouge anti-virus into it and never had a problem getting infected on my host computer (ran in Oracle VM VirtualBox when i did it) but to me it seem like it does a nice job keeping unwanted files from entering into your computer.introduction to the softwareSandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer. The red arrows indicate changes flowing from a running program into your computer. The box labeled Hard disk (no sandbox) shows changes by a program running normally. The box labeled Hard disk (with sandbox) shows changes by a program running under Sandboxie. The animation illustrates that Sandboxie is able to intercept the changes and isolate them within a sandbox, depicted as a yellow rectangle.

HelloI have been watching tutorials about this product and am confused.It seems that all content is sandboxed or not including email. While emailing, and in virtual mode, how do you actually send the email if you are in this environment?Thank you

A:Sandboxie

The sandbox is like a quarantine in your system. It is isolated from your system and will not allow other programs to access your system. Although Sandboxie, by design, is not isolated from the Internet. Some people use Sandboxie to download things and make sure they are safe, then transfer said things onto their systems.

You can also use a Virtual Machine on your computer, and use it to like a normal machine. There's a setting where you can let the virtual machine use your network card to send and receive data. Other computers won't know that it's "virtual". A computer signal, whether from an actual computer or a virtual computer, is still a signal.

Fixes to several issues which were discovered with version 4.04.
Performance improvements over version 4.04.
Improved support for running Internet Explorer 10 under Sandboxie.
Improved support for Windows 8, in particular: Installing programs in the sandbox, running full screen programs in the sandbox, and printing from 32-bit programs under Sandboxie.
Initial support for Windows 8.1.
Support for Windows Server 2003, which was missing in version 4.04.

Sandboxie is useful if you take the time to configure it properly and use it. For me it was too difficult to configure and I'm often in a hurry and don't stop to use it. Therefore it didn't get used and I removed it. It has a place, but it's up to the user to put it to work.

No need for controversial discussion about security, just install Sandboxie, your problems will be over.The Free version is quite adequate for superb protection from intruders, just delete the sandbox on exit. Nothing gets out into your system.

Backed up by a reputable Free or paid for AV and Firewall program, this is the best security combination you can get on the Internet.

Your comments are welcome, but this combination is VERY GOOD.Since I installed Sandboxie, I have not had ONE single instance of infection come up on my frequent scans.

Anyone have a good way of removing dangerous files in a sandboxie that wont be on the system restore??? Tried using cclearner ,but it still ended up within the sandboxie system restore folder trying to get out so I just nuked all my old system restores.

Sandboxie is probably the most used "real" sandbox application. Most people just use VMware to run untested apps in a virtual setting. But, if you don't have the money to shell out for another 7 license then sandboxie will do the trick, maybe even better than a virtual solution.

How can I get Sandboxie installed on a 64-bit system? I do not have the trouble with driver signing as I have DSEO which overrides that. The problem is the installer won't run on a 64-bit system (it explains the error message). Does anyone know how to or a substitute program?

i was wondering has anyone had experience with the Sandboxie program and is it complicated to use?

A:sandboxie

I found it puzzling at first but, once I understood that, if I actually wanted to keep anything I had seen while my browser was sandboxed I had to follow the instructions for moving the files onto the hard drive, it wasn't too bad.

I am probably the worlds worst at following printed instructions and find myself getting confused very easily. It looks like a program that is well worth the effort of doing some trial and error stuff that you wouln't miss if it went wrong.

I was just about to give Sandboxie a trywhen i saw this comment in another forum....Sandboxie is free nagwarecan some one please explain what the comment means, and should I forget trying it out ..?Thanks Mypenry

A:I Was Going To Try Sandboxie But ....

Nagware means that though there is a version of the program that is free, it is constantly "Nagging" you to pay a small fee to get more features.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this..? Ive seen some thing called '' Sandboxie '' ( Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later --If you use Windows 2000 or later my top recommendation for safe browsing is a free program called Sandboxie [1] that creates a special contained "sandbox" environment on your PC. While browsing within the virtual sandbox provided by Sandboxie you are totally corralled off from other parts of your PC. So any files you download are isolated to the sandbox. Similarly, any programs that are executed only do so within the sandbox and have no access to your normal files, the Windows operating system or any other part of your PC. has any one used this ..? if so can you please comment on it ...? Thanks ......... mypenry
